Question

My users were frustrated with login prompts every time they create/edit a word/excel document.

Based on advice in this forum - I asked them to disable IE 8 Addon called SharePoint OpenDocuments class. Following which they were happy.
BUT
Now there is one issue though - In document library if they try to create a new EXCEL document from a template - then they see a blank spreadsheet and not the text that should be there by default in the excel template.
